🏁 The Finish Line Is in Sight! 💙

 

I’m down to the final 3 runs of my Prostate United Challenge 2025, running 5.25km every single day throughout October to raise funds and awareness for Prostate Cancer UK.

 

So far, I’ve completed 28 of 31 runs, clocked up over 145km, and raised an incredible £3,500 for this amazing cause 🙌

 

This challenge means a lot to me — 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime, and every run is my small way of helping to make a difference.

 

As I head into the final stretch, I’d really appreciate your support:

💙 Give this post a like or share to spread the word

💙 Leave a message of encouragement

💙 And if you can, please donate to my page below 👇

And then there was only 2 more left ……run 29 complete of Prostate United challenge, running 5.25km each and every day throughout the month of October as part of team Leicester City 🦊 to help raise much needed money and awareness for Prostate Cancer UK 🖤💙

 

Another couple of milestones as I have now smashed through the 150km mark whilst also raising over £3,500 for this amazing cause. 
 

Prostate cancer affects 1 in 8 men and takes a life every 45 minutes, so please anything you can spare will be greatly appreciated and help towards increased screening and testing, developing new treatments and hopefully preventative measures. 
 

Thanks to everyone who has supported and donated so far and please keep the shares and messages coming as it helps spread the word. 


If you wish to donate please click the link below, my final run is on Friday and will be a really special one so please keep an eye out.

As I have said before, I have prostate cancer that has now gone to my spine, so no cure for me, just treatments to stall it. I openly talk about it to anyone and everyone about it trying to make people aware of this awful disease.

 

As soon as I found out that I had it, I informed all my brothers, who decided to get PSA tests. they all came back clear, but continued to get regular tests. Unfortunately of of them now has Prostate cancer, he is booked in to have it removed. He did say that if I hadn't told him that I had Prostate cancer, he would never have had the PSA tests as he has no symptoms at all.

 

Please talk about this awful disease, there is no shame in having it. The more men that get checked and catch it early, the better the chances of surviving it

 

@Claudio Fannieri is amazing, putting his body through pain to help raise funds to help get better treatments and hopefully a cure one day

and that is a wrap and what a final run that was of Prostate United. 
 

Thank you LCFC for an amazing experience at Seagrave, where I completed my final run of this challenge with the amazing Jay Brewin who is fan engagement executive and ………… the legend that is Andy King what an incredible experience to run with one of my LCFC heroes and he is the most amazing down to earth people it was a dream come true. 
 

The club pulled out all the stops, I got to meet and have a chat with the Birch and  then Marti presenting me with a signed shirt before my run and then afterwards I got to meet Riccy P who was also absolute class. 
 

So that is 31 runs complete and over 100 miles completed for Prostate United and so far over £3,600 raised for Prostate Cancer UK

Thank you @Claudio Fannieri for putting your body through all the pain again this year for this fantastic cause

 

To say you are amazing , fantastic, legend etc does not do you justice. 

Thank you very much for the very kind words, can I just say you are one of many people who reached out to me and become my motivation to keep going and raising as much money as i can for testing, research and development of treatments. Thank you for all the likes and messages of support throughout this challenge x

Well done and congratulations :appl:

 

I'm a bit embarrassed to say I didn'r notice this thread until today.

 

I did 5k a day last December and I appreciate that it's a fair old slog

 

Donated.   

 

It's a great cause.

Final league table of Prostate United is in… and I’m incredibly proud to have finished in this year’s Top 10 individual fundraisers, raising £4,160 for Prostate Cancer UK. 🖤💙

 

This challenge means a huge amount to me, and looking back over the last three years, I’m blown away that I have managed to raise over £13,000 for such a vital cause.

 

A huge thank you to Leicester City Football Club for their unbelievable support throughout this journey — and to the fantastic LCFC fanbase, who have been nothing short of incredible. Your generosity, encouragement and kindness have played such a massive part in making this possible. 💙🦊

 

To every single person who has liked, shared, supported, encouraged and donated — thank you. Your belief and generosity genuinely mean the world.

 

Here’s to continuing the fight, raising awareness and doing everything we can to support those affected by prostate cancer. 🖤💙

That is a fantastic amount to have raised, you are just amazing.

 

As a prostate cancer sufferer I am so grateful to you and all the other people going through pain and suffering to raise funds for this cause. I will not be the only City supporter that will be suffering this awful disease, and I am sure they, and myself, will all be so so grateful for your unselfishness in doing this again this year.

 

Words just dont seem enough to say thank you

Me too and I have a nephew who's about have his prostate removed. When I was having my radiotherapy they were installing an extra machine so you can see how every penny raised frees up NHS money for improvements.

 

Steve is the STAR!  :appl::appl::appl::appl::appl::appl::appl:

One of my brothers is getting his prostate removed on Saturday and another is awaiting his biopsy result. Prostate cancer is a huge problem, and need funds to try to find a cure
